White House trade advisor Peter Navarro said Monday that an offer by Vietnam to eliminate tariffs on U.S. imports would not be enough for the administration to lift its new levies announced last week.

“Let’s take Vietnam. When they come to us and say ‘we’ll go to zero tariffs,’ that means nothing to us because it’s the nontariff cheating that matters,” Navarro said on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”

Could be that someone smarter and even more corrupt ends up where he is now. Maybe he would've ended up a different person if his parents died while he was over there and he came back with less inclination to live on the jetset.

Taking him off the board doesn't do much to shake the Republican party. That kind of institutional rot needs a lot of resources and manpower to compromise.
